The hot rumor of the hour is that Glee‘s prom episode will include a cover of Rebecca Black’s infamous YouTube hit “Friday,” and Vulture can confirm that and reveal an opposite-sex twist: The ode to fun, sitting in the backseat, fun, and fun will be sung by Kevin McHale, Chord Overstreet, and Mark Salling. (Though another rumor had returning guest star Jonathan Groff taking part, we hear he isn’t involved.)

Wouldn’t it be nice if the “Glee” cast was only allowed to cover songs that they could make better than the original? No more Queen or Lady Gaga or Bon Jovi or whatever — just Rebecca Black and Milli Vanilli and Limp Bizkit. That’s the nice thing about “Friday” — pretty much anybody who performs it or makes a spoof of it will do it at least as well as Rebecca Black. The song has zero sanctity. Kinda like your mom.

@donturtuccio, as much as I’d usually agree with unnecessary insults, I must admit that, in this case, I would kindly accept what she is offering.

Per the article: Kevin McHale – the forward from the Celtics?

Damnit, GFunk, of course not. Thanks for fucking up a perfectly good opportunity to complain about his mismanagement of the Timberwolves.

What a presumption that Glee would make it better.

Colbert/Roots on Fallon killed it dead. So leave it to these chuckleheads to dig up the dead, e.g. Gwyneth Paltrow.

America = people with ego and attitude , bully, prostitution warehouse, gay/lesbians are honored, children are egomaniacs and rude, in my sight people are worse than rebecca black atleast she made a decent video whereas the people cursed, sweared and mocked her….America the greatest nation on Earth sounds more like the crappiest place to live in idiots are respected in America like Homer Simpson

How does she get profit if EVERYONE hates that shitty Pop song? And where the fuck are parents these days?! Didn’t they grow up in the 70’s, 80’s and especially the Grunge era of the early 90’s. They should show their Kids some REAL music. Fuck this generation plan 2 sell Sex to kids.

Well, I was hoping this was a rumour, but nope. Glee is over. Ended in the middle of an episode. I stopped the DVR recording, deleted the episode, and removed the DVR sub. I can’t have respect for a show that would even acknowledge the most annoying song in musical history (and the only song annoying enough to have people who play it for others charged with murder) exists, let alone perform a rendition of it. Fuck Glee. It lied to me. It made me think it was good and then it pulled THIS SHIT!
